Its most basic usage is `[year]`, which will display the current year. If you provide a starting year with the ‘from’ parameter, it will expand into a date range when the ‘from’ year is before the current year. If `[year]` is used by another plugin, then it uses the fallback `[runthings_year]` which can be customised with the `runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag` filter. You can see the active shortcode tag in it entry in the installed plugins page. #### Features * Display current year with `[year]` * Create a dynamic year range with `[year from="2020"]` * Abbreviated year format with `[year from="2020" mode="short"]`, which shows « 2020-26 » (if the current year is 2026) * Automatic fallback shortcode `[runthings_year]` if another plugin already uses the ‘year’ shortcode * Filter (`runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag`) to set your own shortcode #### Usage Examples Assuming the current year is 2026: * `[year]` displays « 2026 » * `[year from="2026"]` displays « 2026 » (since it’s the current year) * `[year from="1983"]` displays « 1983-2026 » * `[year from="2020" mode="short"]` displays « 2020-26 » (shortened current year) * `[year from="1995" mode="short"]` displays « 1995-2026 » (not shortened because centuries differ) ### Filters #### runthings_current_year_shortcode_tag This filter allows customization of the shortcode tag used by the plugin. For detailed documentation and examples, see the [full documentation on GitHub](https://github.com/runthings-dev/runthings-current-year-shortcode#filters). Parameters: 1. **`$tag`** (`string`): The shortcode tag to be registered. Defaults to ‘year’ or‘ runthings_year’ if conflicted. ### Additional Notes Built by Matthew Harris of runthings.dev, copyright 2021-2026.

Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/runthings-current-year-shortcode` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress. 3. Use the `[year]` shortcode in your posts, pages, or widgets. ## FAQ ### What if another plugin already uses the [year] shortcode? If another plugin already uses the `[year]` shortcode, this plugin will automatically use `[runthings_year]` instead to avoid conflicts. ### How can I check which shortcode is active? On the Plugins admin page, you’ll see the active shortcode listed in the plugin’s row. ### Can I use this in my footer? Yes! This shortcode works perfectly in footer widgets, custom footer code, or anywhere else shortcodes are supported in your theme. ### What’s the ‘mode=short’ parameter for? When using a date range with years in the same century (e.g., 2020-2026), the ‘short’ mode will abbreviate the end year to just the last digits (2020-26), creating a cleaner look for your copyright statements. ## Avis Il n’y a aucun avis pour cette extension. ## Contributeurs/contributrices & développeurs/développeuses « Current Year Shortcode » est un logiciel libre.
